Which Makes Our Wicked Loving Ways Sublime

Marveling at a love so fair
I hold her hand in mine
Her eyes meet me where I am
A love true, pure and divine
Which makes our wicked loving ways sublime

Flirtatious flutters of her lashes,
Lashes of her whip tailed wit
Cut deep, so sweet, so many times;
I look so forward to it.
Marveling at a love so fair.

Her skin so soft
I love to touch
From head to toe and head to Oh!
Skin to skin and such
I hold her hand in mine

She smiles at me with secret meaning,
Knowledge for only her and I.
Her devious desires she discreetly
Says what things we together should try.
Her eyes meet me where I am

Not where I used to be.
For she lifted me up from the dirt
Dirty and desperate for love’s caress
Across my chest and under my shirt
A love true, pure and divine.

I took her angel wings
And anointed her with oils
The better to slide in between 
The pleasures of hedonistic spoils
Which makes our wicked loving ways sublime

This was for a dVerse prompt: Today, we’re going to revisit the cascade form, created by Udit Bhatia.

“The cascade is not a difficult form to understand. You will use each line from your first stanza in subsequent stanzas. For example, if your first stanza is three lines, your will have four stanzas. The first line of your first stanza becomes the last line of the second stanza. The second line of the first stanza becomes the last line of your second stanza, and so on.”

I hope you enjoy! 😊
